My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

In addition to spirit coins, the rewards from the Immortal Wood Group include cultivation technique exchange vouchers and ten million Immortal Kingdom civilization coins.

"You can choose any cultivation technique from the cultivation techniques collected by the Immortal Wood Group using the cultivation technique exchange voucher."

"Ten million Immortal Kingdom Civilization Coins could improve the situation at home."

"With 10 million civilization coins, even if my parents don't work, it's enough for them to live on for a lifetime."

The Immortal Kingdom rules over countless planes, and ordinary matter is extremely abundant.

Even if all mortals stopped working, the Immortal Kingdom's technology could still support its ordinary inhabitants. Clearly, due to certain considerations, the Immortal Kingdom's leadership did not choose to support all ordinary people.

Instead, it provides countless jobs for mortals in the immortal realm, allowing them to support themselves.

Gu Qing's mind stirred slightly.

The consciousness projection instantly arrived at the Immortal Wood Group within the Spirit Realm. The entire Spirit Realm can be described as a holographic world, with all entities in the Spirit Realm corresponding to the 1086th plane of the Immortal Kingdom.

Following the instructions provided by the Immortal Wood Group, Gu Qing arrived at the Immortal Wood Group's cultivation technique area in the Spirit Realm.

The entire practice area is like a library.

The techniques included inside are arranged like books on the bookshelf.

Based on the attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, etc., they are placed in different areas.

"The first-grade, first-level cultivation technique, 'Golden Blade Qi Refining Technique,' cultivates a natal sword technique; wherever the golden blade goes, it can cleave rivers and split streams..."

"The Qi Refining Chapter of the Second-Rank, First-Stage Technique 'Evergreen Myriad Forms Technique'..."

As one of the top ten new talents in this year's mercenary trial, Gu Qingke can choose the second-grade Qi Refining Technique.

Second-grade cultivation techniques lead directly to the Foundation Establishment stage. Compared to first-grade techniques, second-grade techniques are more comprehensive, including accompanying spells, movement techniques, escape techniques, exclusive magical artifacts, and more.

"Most cultivation techniques of the second rank or below are of the five elements, followed by attributes such as light, darkness, wind, thunder, and ice."

"In the ancient martial arts world, I first cultivated the 'Reflecting Heaven Sword Manual,' and later integrated the inheritance of techniques with both Yin and Yang attributes. The true essence in my body is a composite energy."

"The cultivation techniques collected by the Immortal Wood Group contain less than one-tenth or one-twelfth of the five elements techniques, and those involving the fusion of Yin and Yang are even rarer and of lower quality."

"If one cultivates a single-attribute technique, the true essence in the body will be converted into immortal spiritual power, and at least half of the energy will be lost."

"This is a difficult situation..."

He pondered for a moment.

Gu Qing looked at the sword technique section, where the Immortal Sword Control Technique also had a separate section.

only……

Sword cultivators place great importance on their temperament and must be in harmony with the way of the sword in order to unleash the power of their sword techniques.

however.

This was not a problem for Gu Qing.

With an equipment slot, he could completely bypass the swordsmanship aptitude issue using the equipment slot.

Moreover, the fact that he was able to master the Heavenly Sword Manual suggests that his swordsmanship aptitude might not be that bad.

Thinking about this...

Gu Qing began to select sword techniques and cultivation methods.

In the end, Gu Qing chose the Soul Devouring Sword Technique from the cultivation techniques section of the Immortal Wood Group.

Yes, only the Qi Refining chapter.

After choosing his cultivation method, Gu Qing received another message from the Immortal Wood Group, instructing him to exit the Spirit Realm and return his consciousness to the outside of the Trial Hall.

Consciousness traversed the darkness and came outside.

Many mercenaries had already woken up and were discussing the spirit world or cultivation techniques. Of course, this discussion only involved the names of the techniques and their general effects.

The cultivation techniques taught by the Immortal Wood Group cannot be casually passed on to outsiders.

In the Immortal Realm, all cultivation techniques and spells are subject to copyright issues. Anyone who steals a cultivation technique or spell will most likely be punished to the point of bankruptcy, and may even have their body and soul used as collateral to pay off debts.

"Newbies!!"

"The first mercenary trial has ended. The next mercenary trial will begin in one month."

"Next."

"Strive to transform the resources you possess into your own strength. The stronger you are, the greater your chances of surviving the next trial."

After countless tribulations, his mortal body was refined, and he sought the Dao to attain immortality.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Qing left the trial hall with the others.

Gu Qing stopped a completely white hovercar.

"Go to Silver Moon Residential Area."

"no problem."

The driver was an ordinary citizen of the Immortal Kingdom in his thirties.

soon.

Gu Qing then returned to the Silver Moon residential area.

Returning to her familiar neighborhood after a year, Gu Qing couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

I wonder how my parents and Ah Cheng are doing?

"Huh?!"

As Gu Qing arrived at her doorstep, before she even went inside, she heard bursts of laughter coming from inside.

isn't it?

I'm fighting desperately in other dimensions, what's wrong with you guys?

Gu Qing's heart sank.

She slowly pushed open the door and glanced inside. She found a middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses in the house. The man was dressed in black, and his clothes, pants, watch, and so on were all luxury items that Gu Qing had never dared to dream of before.

The items he possesses alone would cost at least two million Immortal Kingdom Civilization Coins.

"Brother, brother."

"You're back!!"

As soon as Gu Qing opened the door, the sharp-eyed Gu Cheng immediately called out in her childish voice.

He shouted as he ran toward Gu Qing.

Seeing this, Gu Qing felt relieved. You kid, at least you haven't forgotten your brother.

My efforts in other dimensions were worthwhile.

After ruffling Gu Cheng's radish-like hair, Gu Qing led her younger brother into the living room.

Her father, Gu Ciyuan, holding Gu Qing's hand, introduced her to the middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses:

"Brother, this is my good-for-nothing boss. He didn't even get into a regular university. I'm sorry to trouble you to come all this way today."

Gu Qing: "..."

Seeing the "囧" (embarrassed/frustrated) expression on Gu Qing's face, the middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses couldn't help but laugh.

He immediately came to the rescue:

"Brother Gu, everyone's talent is different, and their destiny is also different."

"Nephew Gu Qing is very capable."

"He is one of the top ten rising stars among the mercenaries of the Xianmu Group this year."

"Your Gu family has produced a prodigy."

"If Gu Qing hadn't perished along the way, his future achievements would have been limitless."

"At least a Nascent Soul level commander of ten thousand, guarding a certain plane."

The middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses spoke eloquently.

"what……"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ciyuan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The mother, who was brewing tea nearby, couldn't help but tremble as she held the teapot, spilling a few drops of tea onto the tea table.

Only her younger brother, who was only a few years old and didn't understand anything, was carried along by Gu Qing.

Gu Ciyuan carefully examined his son.

He then noticed that Gu Qing was wearing a medal made of a strange material on his chest, with the character "肆" written on it.

Having attended high school and received compulsory education in the Immortal Kingdom, Gu Ciyuan naturally understood the value of this medal.

"Fourth on the Top Ten Rookies!!"

"This, this..."

Looking at the medal, Gu Ciyuan was speechless with shock.

The mother quietly wiped away her tears.

"My son has made something of himself, he's better than his father..."

After a long while, Gu Ciyuan murmured.

Seeing this, Zhang Yubai smiled and comforted Gu Qing's parents.

After some casual conversation, Zhang Yubai changed the subject to the purpose of their trip, and he asked Gu Qing with a smile:

"Nephew Gu Qingxian, have you ever heard of the Nine-Mysterious Celestial Beast?"
